Vision
SGTech's Singapore Enterprise Chapter aims to prioritize local tech-enabled businesses to grow within and beyond Singapore.
Mission
To help local companies strategize and evolve their capabilities, by connecting to an ecosystem of like-minded entrepreneurs and resources for future success
Background
Formed in 2001, the
Singapore Enterprise Chapter (SEC) caters to the holistic development of
Singapore technology companies. The SEC is also the biggest chapter in SGTech.
The SEC’s key domain areas include:
- Local enterprise development
- Local technology product development
- Regionalization of local technology companies
- Capability development
- Forging internationalization
Major Activities
Since its formation, the SEC has added value to our members by focusing our efforts on the following areas of development:
Market Development
The
SEC helps member companies to expand their business into overseas
markets. Many of these efforts are promoted under the ‘Made in Singapore
& Proud of IT’ branding. These include:
- SiTEX: SiTEX has
become the definitive consumer digital lifestyle show in Singapore
bettering its own performance benchmarks year after year.
- Overseas Business Missions:
SEC organizes business missions to help member companies expand
into the regional markets.
- Strategic Alliances
with overseas partners provide reciprocal promotions and market
development efforts and business matching opportunities for SEC members.
- Close Partnership with trade Embassies: Canada, US, UK, Australia, NZ, Sri Lanka, China.
- Harnessing Innovation & New Technologies: An
increasingly competitive market demands that companies harness more
innovation and technologies to generate exciting new commercial
opportunities, revenues and retain their competitive edges.
Capability Development
SEC
members benefit from a regular programme of talks, seminars and other
Business Intelligence events to equip them with the knowledge and skills
to develop their business. These include:
- Talks on Branding by the Singapore Management University (SMU); Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Management by IPOS.
- Business Intelligence Roundtable by Exploit Technologies
- Industry Seminars on Logistics; “Exploring Uncharted Ground” with IE Singapore and IDA
All
applicants must be SGTech members. Non-SGTech members can apply for SGTech membership together with Chapter membership and admission to the SECC is
contingent on the approval of SGTech membership.
